Voting in Person
When to Vote
In a primary election, party members (of each party) vote for the candidate that they want to become 'the' party's candidate in the general election. In a general election, all voters (of all parties) vote for the candidate that they want to become the officeholder. In Arizona, you are required to be registered to a party in order to vote in the Presidential Preference Primary only.
Where to Vote
Be sure to double-check the location of your polling place on the day you go to vote, as they can change with every election.
Find your voting districts (congressional, legislative, school-board, county supervisor, city council, and so on).
Remember you can sign up to be on the Permanent Early Voting List and have your ballots for every election delivered to you.
Going to the Polling Place: What You Need to Know
Double-check your polling place.
By law, you cannot wear campaign clothing (or carry campaign materials) inside the polling place or within 75 feet of a polling place. (Signs are placed by the poll workers to mark the 75 foot line.)
Lines are usually shortest around mid morning.
Be sure to bring appropriate photo ID. Failure to provide adequate identification will result in your completing a Provisional Ballot. The following forms of photo ID also acceptable.

Finding Your Voting District
Each race for office is comprised of a voting district. Some districts overlap each other or cross each other's boundaries, which used to make knowing your districts more complex and difficult. Today, finding your district is as easy as clicking this link and entering your address.
The geographical boundaries of some races are set by state, county, or city lines rather than being divided into smaller units. For state-wide, county-wide, city-wide, or at-large races, the district is the entire state, county, or city. For example, a governor is elected by the entire state; a mayor is elected by the entire city; and an at-large city councilman is elected by the entire city.
